property deeds

[m.willetts]

my sister and I inherited my mothers property after her death .The deeds at the time of the execution of the will were transfered in to mine and my sister's names. I susbquently bought my sister's half of the property from her. I am now seeking to sell the property do I need to change the name on the deeds to mine only or mine & my wifes if this is of any benefit.

I doubt it will make any difference as you are selling the property.

If you can prove the purchase from your sister before commencing the sale you should immediately change the proprietorship into the names of your wife and yourself as joint tenants. If not, there may be trouble ahead!

If you did this using a solicitor / conveyancer, it's most likely the Title Deeds will have been changed at the same time. If not... refer to Maude !!
